You can now make the $20 Apps work with your iPod Touch for free. All you have to do is follow the simple steps below.
1. Install SSH viewing my guide here.
2. SSH into your iPod Touch.
3. Navigate to /System/Library/CoreServices
4. Double-click Springboard.app
5. Rename the file N45AP.plist to blank.plist
6. Rename M68AP.plist to N45AP.plist
7. Reboot your iPod Touch!
Now you can play with the wiggly icons and enjoy your iPod Touch 1.1.3 jailbreaked edition!
it works for me its pretty cool
where do i download the SSH viewing? i cant see it...

Hello chaneyneyy,
View my guide at the below link to add SSH,

I have successfully got all the $20 software. But gmail does not work. Keeps saying I never enter the password. Also, I cannot change the icon at the bottom of the bar.
derrick, you will need to download the mail fix. To do that, go to Installer, and add the below source to your iPod Touch:
http://madpike05.googlepages.com/repo.xml
Refresh your sources, then go to Install, scroll to "The iPhone 1.1.3 Apps" category. There should be a package called "1.1.3 Fix Mail". Install that and you're good to go!
Yo! The icon positions are able to be changed by pressing and holding any icon on the screen for a while till it "wiggles". Then you will be able to move the icons around. Regards to the Fix mail, the source is stalled in googlepages which has been max out. So wait for a while till google releases it again to download the package. Thanks freeappleipodtouch!
You're welcome Derrick!
I just noticed that the Google repository is down. Add the repository located at http://sleepers.net/iphonerepo.
Refresh your sources, then install "1.1.3 Mail Fix".
quick question.. while the renaming thing worked, my ipod touch now is being treated as an iphone so much so that i get a "No Service" status now besides the wi-fi indicator. Any idea how this can be removed?
Hi! While I can receive email from gmail now. I cannot send out. It reports password not set....
i get a "No Service" status now besides the wi-fi indicator. Any idea how this can be removed?

Not sure what I did diff...but I followed all the tut's and installed 1.1.3 from my previous jailbreak'd 1.1.2. I cant find that folder in my Itouch when I SSH into it?? Is there another 1.1.3 that I have to DL in order to get all the new apps?
Hello derrick,
I'm not sure why it's not working for you. Try uninstalling that source for the mail App and try using this source:
http://ipodtouchmaster.com/files/repo.xml
Find the mail fix somewhere in the categories.
Hello steven,
Try this to get rid of the "No Service".
1. Download a SummerBoard patch from http://www.box.net/shared/bd3kbj9wcs
2. SSH in to your iPod Touch and copy the file to your iPod Touch
3. SSH to the touch, and execute the below steps.
4: If you put the sbpatcher.tar.gz file is in /var/root, type the following commands:
1. tar zxvf ~/sbpatcher.tar.gz
2. cd sbpatch
3. ./sb_patcher
This should take care of the SummerBoard and the "No Service" status.
Hello packee,
Try going to Installer and add http://ipodtouchmaster.com/files/repo.xml as a source. You can find the $20 App Pack somewhere in the categories. Let me know if this works.
Thanks,
Apps pack on that source installed and working on my Itouch.
Thanks again
Packee
Hi! I just got my ipod touch a few days ago and it didnt came with the new apps. I bought the extended warranty and i just want to ask this before a jailbreak my ipod. Does this affects my warranty with apple or my extended warranty???
Hello solymar,
Yes, jailbreaking the iPod Touch will void your warranty with Apple, unfortunately.
Cool, it works. Will test email later. I didn't Ssh into mine I used Total commander instead.
Do u really get a ipod touch for free
The sb_patch does not help - I still see "No service". I am not using Summerboard but the standard Springboard.
No, bradon. Learn to read. You get the $20 apps for free, on the iPod touch you should already have.
Can i still do this on a 1.1.1 ipod if not is there and easier way to get installler on ipod touch eg 5-10 min download of ipod?
Will these instructions work if my iTouch is version 1.1.4?
These may work for the iPod Touch 1.1.4, give it a try pastexpiry! I haven't downloaded 1.1.4 yet. Let me know if it works.
I TOTALLY love you!~ You wrote a really clear guide, thanks thanks thanks !~ ^^
When I attempt to rename the files it comes up with this erros:
General failure (server should provide error description).
Error code: 4
Error message from server: Failure
Request code: 18
Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Works on 1.1.4 but how to get rid of the No Service message and the ipod think it's an iPhone ?
tomn: This is an old tutorial, please go to http://code.google.com/p/ijailbreak/
and download the iJailbreak software. You will need to downgrade back to 1.1.1, and can use this software to jailbreak your iPod Touch 1.1.3.
franck: This is an old tutorial. I would recommend doing the same thing I suggested to tomn above. :)
Man!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS AWESOME TUTORIAL, I'LL TRY OUT LATER BUT I JUST WANNA SAY
